7/07 fr. www.projectprospect.com :Pomeranz is a 6-foot-5 lefty with smooth mechanics, a fastball that sits 92-93 mph and touches slightly higher, a devastating curveball and good command. Last season, the Rebels’ ace struck out 31.2% of batters he faced last year while walking 9.3%. When I saw him earlier this spring he didn’t use his changeup much, but showed some feel for it. If his change can develop into a solid third offering, Pomeranz could have a long career as a No. 2 starter
7/13: Pomerance threw a wild pitch against Team Japan, which was followed by six runs, and the first loss of the year for Team USA.
7-20: pitched 6.0, 2-ER, 6-K, win, for Team USA win over Team Canada
7-29: From http://web.usabaseball.com/index.jsp - USA starter Drew Pomeranz (Ole Miss) took a no-hitter into the seventh inning and Team USA beat Germany, 8-1, in the championship game at the 2009 Enbridge Northern Gateway Pipeline World Baseball Challenge at Prince George Citizen Field.
8-1: from http://perfectgame.atinfopop.com - powerful build fb jumps with life out of his hand, mostly 91-93 early, off the table hammer gets hitters off balance and shows solid control. Could be one of top 5 on paper right now for 2010.
9-6: From an 8-25 post www.pgtracker.com: - “right now on paper, top 3 picks for 2010 MLB for me would be” - 1.) LHP Drew Pomeranz, U of Mississippi, 6'5 220, exploding fb, 90-95 range and hard breaking ball, questions on consistency I believe have been answered this summer. Not the best delivery, however, you can compare to Miller out of UNC 2 years ago.

9-24: From: http://mlbresource.blogspot.com: Mock Draft Version 1.0 – 11th pick overall - Drew Pomeranz, LHP - Ole Miss
9-28: From http://mlbresource.blogspot.com: - Mock Draft Version 2 - #4 pick overall - Drew Pomeranz, LHP - Ole Miss - The downfall of the Indians these past couple weeks is that they have struggled. The bright side however is that they are picking pretty high now and have a great shot at a kid like Pomeranz. This polished lefty along with last year's pick RHP Alex White give the Indians two quality starters two years in a row. With the truck full of prospects the Indians just acquired at the AAA level I could see them seeing the depth and taking a chance on a high school propsect but for now Pomeranz is the guy.
10-5 from http://mlbbonusbaby.com: 9. San Diego Padres – Drew Pomeranz, LHP, Ole Miss – (1st LHP pick in draft) - Left-handed power arms are hard to come by, and Pomeranz has one. There’s been some big questions about his arm action, and his lack of athleticism leads me to believe he’s going to be susceptible to the big arm injury. However, up to now he’s been healthy and effective, and his breaking ball can be one of the best in the 2010 class. He’s big, has a solid history, and is left-handed, so it’s hard to see him dropping out of the top fifteen without an injury of some sort.

11-2 from www.perfectgame.com: - Future Scout Sully said: Here is my list of the Top 50 in the class. I have seen almost every one of these players. Went out to AFLAC for the week, saw team usa play, and went to many cape games: - 4- LHP Drew Pomeranz (1st LHP on list)
11-3 from www.mlbresource.com: 3rd Mock draft – 4. Drew Pomeranz, LHP - Ole Miss - I had the Royals taking James Paxton before but I believe if Pomeranz is here then the Royals have to take him. Pitching in the SEC gives Pomeranz big game experience and should shoot through the Royals system helping immediately. (1st LHP on list)
11-17 from www.mlbdraft.blogspot.com: - 5.Cleveland Indians- Drew Pomeranz, LHP, Ole Miss - The Indians are lacking a power LHP in the system, and Pomeranz would change that. At 6'5, Pomeranz sits low 90's with a curveball that is a legitimate swing and miss pitch. Cleveland will not pass that up. (1st LHP picked)
11-18 from www.macksmets.blogspot.com: - 9. LHP Drew Pomeranz – Pomeranz and Sale are the two top left hand pitchers is a draft with very few standouts. (2nd LHP on list)
11-20 from www.draftamerica.com: - 11. Toronto -- Drew Pomeranz, LHP, Ole Miss. Pomeranz misses bats and Toronto went after pitchers with their first four picks last year (despite only managing to sign their top selection, Chad Jenkins (RHP, Kennesaw St.)).
11-23 from www.deepleagues.com: - #4 - Kansas City Royals Drew Pomeranz (LHP, Ole Miss) (1st LHP on list)

1-7-9: Morisato's 2010 MLB Mock Draft - Version 1.0 - 5th Overall – The Cleveland Indians
Drew Pomeranz (LHP), Ole Miss - Drafted by Texas in the 12th round of the 2007 draft, Pomeranz was rumored to have signed just before the deadline. Obviously that didn’t happen, but whatever the case, Pomeranz’s decision will payoff for him in 2010, after he went 8-4 with a 3.40 ERA, striking out 124 and walking just 37 over 95 1/3 innings. He’s quite possibly the best college lefty in the draft, sitting in the low 90’s on his fastball, touching 94. He combines it with a spike curveball that is very effective, and also has a changeup that looks like a usable pitch. His delivery does have some funk to it, but overall he looks like a potential top ten pick at the least. Like all of these picks, Pomeranz isn’t a lock to go here either.
2010 MLB DRAFT MOCK DRAFT- 12/31/09 – www.jjscouting.com - 5.Cleveland Indians- Drew Pomeranz, LHP, Ole Miss - The Indians are lacking a power LHP in the system, and Pomeranz would change that. At 6'5, Pomeranz sits low 90's with a curveball that is a legitimate swing and miss pitch. Cleveland will not pass that up.
1-1-9 update: - -Guys with sinking draft stock currently include Kris Bryant, Yasmani Grandal, Drew Pomeranz, and Kevin Keyes. Keyes was never in the class of the other names here, but with his weight balloon and shift to first base, he’s lost a lot of scouting value.
1-1-9 from www.draftsite.com: - #11 Oakland Drew Pomeranz LHP University of Mississippi 6'5" 231 L,L
1-15-0 from http://mlbbonusbaby.com: - 16. Chicago Cubs – Drew Pomeranz, LHP, Ole Miss – Another player mentioned in my bits and pieces writeup, Pomeranz has drawn a few more audible complaints about his motion than I had been hearing back in October. That’s not necessarily a result of anything he’s done between then and now, but only a reflection of scouts that now have time to compare their summer scouting. He still has excellent upside, and a team like the Cubs who see him as a long-term starter might take the risk of trying to clean up his motion and preserve his arm from wear and tear.
